Released in 2010, Pro Tools HD Native has quickly become the most popular system for users that require near-zero latency without the DSP-acceleration of Pro Tools HD or HDX. Originally released as a PCI-Express-only card, HD Native did not cater easily for laptop users without the need for separate expansion chassis - not any more!

The included Thunderbolt interface offers the same features as the standard PCI-Express card with the added benefit of ultra-fast Thunderbolt connectivity and high-quality on-board headphone monitoring. Using Thunderbolt offers supreme performance by virtually eliminating the inherent latency found with USB and FireWire devices, allowing you to concentrate on the production without having to worry about recording or performance delay.

Also included is the Avid HD I/O 16x16 Analogue, a high-performance audio interface with unprecedented I/O flexibility designed to completely integrate with any Pro Tools HD system. Resembling previous generation interfaces, HD I/O has been completely redesigned on the inside with high-quality electronics, giving you pristine conversion at the lowest possible latency.
